Your Majesty, you don’t want your secret to be known, do you?

Chapter 10 Empress: The white fungus and lotus seed soup this morning was hard to swallow
The sky above Jingmingguan.

Di Bing looked in the direction of Jingzhao Yin Mansion and asked.

"In order to intervene in the spiritual energy blessed land, you let him be the first to take the lead?"

Pei Xuanji raised her chin slightly, I wonder how you can take him away.

"You should go."

Di Bing clenched his fists and wrinkled his nose.

"If I can't beat you, huh!"

……

Looking at the closed door, Li Yunshu cursed secretly.

With the empress on one side and Zhao Youde on the other, the Jingzhao Yin Mansion obviously wanted to stay out of the matter.

At this time, people on both sides of the street had gathered around.

Zhao Youde laughed evilly and looked at Li Yunshu as if he were a slaughtered lamb.

Killing Zhao Yi and destroying the business of Lingqi Blessed Land could not be a good thing.

Young people are young people after all, and they think that they can do whatever they want just by virtue of their status as imperial envoys.

Don’t you know how big the involvement is behind this blessed land of spiritual energy?

Not to mention other sects, the Tianquan Sect behind him is the biggest beneficiary of the spiritual energy blessed land.

What's more, he has a good reason for the sect to take action.

The empress came to Jingming Temple in person last night and stayed for several hours before coming out.

Before leaving, he said again: Li Yunshu worked hard all day and night to solve my doubts, and I will reward you with a hundred taels of gold!

To clear up doubts, what doubts does the empress have that a young Taoist priest in the foundation-building stage needs to solve?
That must be about the way to ascension!

Who doesn’t want to know the secret of ascension.

Taking advantage of Zhao Yi's death, Li Yunshu was captured and brought back to Tianquan Sect, and the secret of his ascension was obtained from him.

Not only can he avenge his son's murder, but he can also make great contributions to the sect.

Moreover, if the sect comes forward, even the empress will be wary of it.

He didn't believe that the Empress would break up with the entire Tianquan Sect for a mere Li Yunshu.

"Are you Li Yunshu?"

Li Yunshu looked at the speaker, an old man in purple robes.

"who are you?"

Zhao Youde beside the old man said.

"This is Elder Cui from the Tianquan Sect's office in the capital. Li Yunshu, you have no way to escape!"

Elder Cui stroked his beard and said calmly.

"Li Yunshu, you killed my disciple of Tianquan Sect. Come back to the sect with me to stand trial."

"If you want to add a crime, why bother!"

"Zhao Yi is a disciple of my Tianquan Sect. You committed a murder on the street. Do you still want to deny it?"

What?
Li Yunshu suspected that he had heard wrongly, why Zhao Yi was involved with Tianquan Sect again.

He really didn't expect that he would kill Zhao Yi and explode so many people.

First it was Zhao Youde, and then it was the Tianquan Sect. What kind of background did this have?

"Zhao Yi beat the imperial envoy and treated the three Yi tribes according to the law. Does the Tianquan Sect want to violate the laws of Dachu?"

"Zhao Yi is a disciple of my Tianquan Sect. He has his own sect's restraints. How can we allow you to be cruel." Elder Cui waved his sleeve and said, "Take it down!"

Upon seeing this, two Tianquan Sect disciples immediately came forward and approached Li Yunshu with swords.

Zhao Yi was already dead, so they were not stupid enough to think that Li Yunshu would be captured without mercy.

Li Yunshu took a deep breath and spoke loudly while using his spiritual energy.

"Does the Tianquan Sect's sect rules have to override the laws of Dachu?"

This question resounded throughout the capital under the influence of spiritual power.

Zhao Youde snorted coldly, as long as Li Yunshu entered Tianquan Sect, he would have a hundred ways to kill this thief.

"Li Yunshu, you are just an abandoned child. Do you think anyone will protect you?"

Li Yunshu did not retreat, and he had no way to retreat.

He may be a chess piece, but it's hard to say if he's not an abandoned piece.

Just when the two Tianquan Sect disciples reached the door of Jingzhao Yin Mansion, a pressure fell from the sky.

Li Yunshu raised his head slightly, and Shangguan Shuangyue landed in front of him.

As expected, the empress did not stand idly by and watch the couple's kindness last for hundreds of days.

The two Tianquan Sect disciples were locked in place and were not allowed to move.

Elder Cui and Zhao Youde looked at each other, and Elder Cui cleared his throat and spoke first.

"Sir Shangguan, what does this mean?"

Elder Cui understood that Shangguan Shuangyue's appearance meant that he was the empress.

If the empress wanted to protect Li Yunshu, they really didn't dare to use force.

However, this matter will never be easy.

Although the empress holds the supreme authority over Da Chu, the Tianquan Sect is not at the mercy of others.

Shangguan Shuangyue's eyes swept across the Tianquan Sect.

"You are not qualified to take away people from the Zhenyi Division."

Li Yunshu breathed a sigh of relief. The empress gave him another layer of buffs on top of the imperial envoy.

The Department of Zhenyi is responsible for catching demons and evil spirits. It is directly under the imperial court and only obeys the orders of the empress.

Each state capital has a branch of the Zhenyi Division, which can be said to penetrate every corner of the Chu State like a spider web.

They are also the eyes placed by the Empress throughout Dachu, and many confidential information are also transmitted through the Yiyi Department.

As a member of the Zhenyi Division, I believe that Zhao Youde would not dare to do anything openly.

As for secretly, it depends on who kills whom first.

Zhao Youde couldn't stand it anymore.

"Sir Shangguan, I have never heard that Li Yunshu joined the Zhenyi Division."

Shangguan Shuangyue took out a token, turned around, walked up to Li Yunshu, and pinned it on his waist.

Then he looked at Zhao Youde and others and said seriously.

"Now he is."

Elder Cui's spiritual power was stirring all over his body, and his tone was cold.

"Shangguan Shuangyue, do you really think that my Tianquan Sect is easy to bully?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the Tianquan Sect disciples all took a step forward, their palms already resting on the hilt of the sword in their hands.

At this moment, the sky was originally clear, but there was a strong wind.

A cold voice rose from Jingmingguan and resounded throughout the capital.

"So what?"

thump!
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone in the Tianquan Sect knelt down.

Zhao Youde and Elder Cui had veins popping up on their foreheads, but they were unable to resist the force.

The biting chill went from the soles of my feet to the top of my head.

The empress actually took action!
Inside the gate of Jingzhao Yin Mansion.

Gao Gong saw everything outside through the crack in the door and couldn't help but sigh.

"He is indeed His Majesty's confidant!"

Not to mention Zhao Youde, even he did not expect that the empress would take action herself.

Although he never showed up, his words were enough to scare the capital.

If she wasn't a confidant, how could the empress take action for him?Li Yunshu straightened his waist a little more. At this moment, he felt an inexplicable surge of pride in his heart. Who else!
I hold the Empress’ thigh firmly, even Jesus can’t stop it.

It's fragrant, tender and smooth, and it's so comfortable to hold.

Zhao Youde clenched his fists and stared at Li Yunshu with his eyes full of viciousness and resentment.

Now the law cannot punish Li Yunshu, and force cannot stop this thief.

The hatred of killing your son is like a stick in your throat!
He is not willing!

"His Majesty--"

boom!
As soon as the words were spoken, Zhao Youde's head hit the ground uncontrollably.

Li Yunshu walked past Zhao Youde with his head held high.

Under the angry and unwilling gaze of everyone in the Tianquan Sect, he walked away.

……

The view is clear.

Li Yunshu returned to the Taoist temple and glanced around with his peripheral vision.

I don’t know why the master’s wife left without saying goodbye, leaving only the empress.

Pei Xuanji's tone was calm, but there was a chill in the air.

"I heard that you want to find a Taoist companion?"

Upon hearing this, Li Yunshu's heart skipped a beat.

As expected, the empress heard what the master's wife said about finding a Taoist companion for him.

"No no!"

Li Yunshu shook his head like a rattle and denied it again and again.

No matter how stupid he was, he would not dare to say in front of the empress that he wanted to find a Taoist companion.

"If you like any girl in the capital, I will marry you."

Pei Xuanji's tone was calm, but in Li Yunshu's ears, every word contained murderous intent.

He immediately lowered his head and said respectfully.

"Don't dare."

There was no emotion or anger in the empress' tone.

"It turns out I just didn't dare."

hiss!
Li Yunshu took a deep breath and clenched his palms unconsciously - hard, his fist became hard.

He simply raised his head and looked directly into the empress' phoenix eyes.

"What did His Majesty just say?"

Pei Xuanji's eyes narrowed slightly.

"I said, it turns out it's not that I don't want to, but that I don't dare."

"One more sentence."

"I said, if you like any girl in the capital, I will give you a hand in marriage."

"I have indeed fallen in love with a girl, and I hope your Majesty will grant her marriage."

Pei Xuanji's tone suddenly turned cold, and she squeezed out a word between her teeth.

"Who!"

Facing the empress' questioning gaze, Li Yunshu said calmly.

"His Majesty."

"Huh?" At first, Pei Xuanji didn't react, "I'm asking you -"

Halfway through her words, she suddenly understood what Li Yunshu meant.

Ah--

boom!
Li Yunshu flew out upside down and embedded himself into the courtyard wall.

As the dust cleared, he pulled himself out of the wall.

"So, what is the relationship between Zhao Youde and Tianquan Sect?"

After clarifying the ins and outs of the matter, it is somewhat intriguing to recall that the empress wanted him to kill Zhao Yi.

Pei Xuanji seemed to have anticipated this problem.

"Zhao Youde is a disciple of the Tianquan Sect, but his cultivation has been stuck in Yuanying for many years before he became an official."

After hearing the empress's answer and thinking of the sentence asking him to kill Zhao Yi, everything was explained.

He still thinks of officialdom too simply. The most important thing about being an official in the government is not strength or talent, but background.

A flowing dynasty, an iron-clad sect.

I am afraid that many of the officials in the imperial court have support from various major sects.

In ancient times, there were five surnames and seven hopes. The aristocratic families controlled the government, and their disciples and former officials were all over the world.

As a result, the gentry all over the world were proud to marry women with five surnames.

Here, the major sects control the court. Even if the empress wants to change this situation, it will not happen overnight.

Zhao Yi controls many spiritual blessings in Dachu. It is not only Zhao Youde who is supporting him, but Tianquan Sect is the biggest beneficiary.

The empress asked him to kill Zhao Yi because she wanted to get a foothold in Lingqi Blessed Land's business.

Cutting off people's wealth is like killing one's parents.

Killing Zhao Yi yourself would be tantamount to offending the Tianquan Sect.

Therefore, it is impossible to follow Master Niang to Tianquan Sect.

Thinking of this, Li Yunshu couldn't help but take a breath.

I thought I was hugging the empress's lap, but ended up being a knife in her hand.

The empress walked up to Li Yunshu step by step, seemingly reading his mind.

"You don't want to be my knife?"

What else could Li Yunshu say.

"I am willing to serve His Majesty as a dog."

The empress nodded with satisfaction.

"Report from Tomorrow Town Yisi."

As if remembering something, he waved to Li Yunshu.

"there's one more thing."

Li Yunshu didn't know why, so he immediately stepped forward and asked.

"What else is going on, Your Majesty?"

However, as soon as he finished speaking, his eyes suddenly turned white and he flew out again.

boom!
Li Yunshu's back hit the courtyard wall, and the wall protruded in a huge arc.

Just one more force and I'm afraid it will break through the wall.

The slightest movement caused a tugging pain in my chest.

He didn't understand why he suddenly moved his feet when he was fine just now.

"Why?"

Pei Xuanji exhaled a breath and calmed down.

"The white fungus and lotus seed soup this morning was hard to swallow."

Li Yunshu:? ? ?

He really couldn't figure out what the relationship between the unpalatable white fungus and lotus seed soup and his own beating had to do with it.

That white fungus and lotus seed soup was not made by me!
